Hydrogen Sensing Solutions
Detecting hydrogen leaks is crucial to ensure the safety of new-generation plants that produce and distribute hydrogen.
One of the most promising and eco-sustainable solutions for energy production. Due to the unique properties of hydrogen, it is essential to use advanced detection technologies to prevent accidents and ensure safety.
The Importance of Detecting Leaks
Properties of Hydrogen: Hydrogen is the lightest gas and tends to disperse quickly in the air, but it can accumulate in enclosed spaces, creating explosion risks due to its high flammability. For domestic use, hydrogen is already mixed between 7% and 20% with methane to increase combustion efficiency. It is also odorless and colorless, making it difficult to detect without appropriate instruments.
Safety of Plants: Hydrogen production and storage plants must be equipped with leak detection systems to continuously monitor and detect any leaks in real-time. This is particularly important in areas near storage tanks and production lines.
Safety Regulations: Compliance with international and local safety regulations for hydrogen plants requires the implementation of effective and reliable leak detection systems.
The Nissha FIS Solution
For these applications, a reliable hydrogen sensor is necessary, and NISSHA FIS has developed a catalytic cell detector with minimal mass and a large surface area, thereby increasing the precision and speed of detection even at low concentrations. The features of the FH2-HY11 meet the long-lasting requirements of real-world applications, eliminating the need to replace detectors for a long time. Combined with sophisticated electronics and dedicated software, FIS offers a robust, reliable, and ready-to-use solution.
